I don't know what he's complaining about. The flag was uploaded as public domain. People should be able to do whatever they want with it. If he wants to make money, he should go produce and sell flags too.
- chaosmachine 17y agoI don't think he's complaining, really.
- lutorm 17y agoYeah I thought he's more amazed that people apparently just take stuff off of wikipedia and start manufacturing it without cross-checking with a single other source...
- Semiapies 17y agoHe is. Flags are a market with a necessarily huge selection, though - why wouldn't they snag every legally available design someone might buy? They probably manufacture the less-common selections on an as-needed basis, after all.
- BearOfNH 17y agoSeveral years ago I updated a particular Wikipedia puzzle writeup and included software to generate the (nontrivial) puzzle artwork. At which point I got my hands slapped (there should be a verb for that), and was told Wikipedia was not a code repository. Evidently Wikipedia is also not a repository for original artwork. I suppose there's some sense to that, what with the high price of storage and countless contributors wishing to upload original works.
